E! DEBUTS NEW REALITY SERIES, STAR DATES, ON SUNDAY, DECEMBER 15

CELEBRITIES INCLUDING GARY COLEMAN, DUSTIN DIAMOND, KIM FIELDS AND JILL WHELAN STEP IN FRONT OF TV CAMERAS AND INTO THE WORLD OF BLIND DATING

Los Angeles, November 13, 2002 -- If you ever wondered what became of Captain Stubing's daughter or if little Eddie Munster ever found his, uh, soul mate, wonder no more! Viewers can catch up with some of their favorite childhood stars who just happen to be single and looking when E! Entertainment Television premieres its new weekly half-hour reality series, Star Dates, on Sunday, December 15 at 10:30PM ET/PT. Celebrities including Gary Coleman (Diff'rent Strokes), Dustin Diamond (Saved by the Bell), Phyllis Diller, Kim Fields (Facts of Life), Butch Patrick (The Munsters) and Jill Whelan (The Love Boat) venture into the terrifying world of blind dating and double the agony by allowing E!'s cameras to follow their date from start to finish.

Sure, it's easy to find romance on the Love Boat, but what happens when these stars are left to their own defenses and completely unscripted. Are celebrities as completely forlorn as the average Joe when it comes to meeting someone that their sister Suzie's boyfriend's college roommate sets them up with? All cameras-and eyes--are on the stars as they reveal all the pre-date trepidation, sweaty palms and pounding hearts as they, just like us, ponder whether the signal has been given to kiss their dates goodnight! Produced in association with Fox TV Studios and George Verschoor (Real World/Murder in Smalltown X/Fear), the half-hour series has a six episode commitment on E!.

If Jill Whelan bashes her role on The Love Boat in the way Kim Fields seemingly did with her "Tootie" character on The Facts of Life, I'll be annoyed. If it wasn't for Facts, Kim Fields might not be known as ANYBODY now.
Granted, a show like Star Dates probably isn't too high quality anyway, I don't think. JMO.
